✨ Step 1: Know Where Your Money is Going (No More ✨Mystery Math✨)

You ever check your bank account and think:

“Who spent all this money?”
…only to realize it was YOU? 😭

It’s giving: emotional spending meets retail therapy with no receipts.

Start tracking your money. Not to punish yourself, but to EMPOWER yourself.

📒 Or just write it down in your notes app like:

Nails – $75
Uber Eats – $40
Target (aka my weakness) – $98

✨ Step 2: Romanticize Budgeting Like It’s Self-Care 🕯️

Girl, budgeting doesn’t have to be dry and boring. Light a candle, grab some iced coffee, put on a cute playlist, and call it a “Money Date.”

Break it down like this:

  • 💵 Necessities (50%) → rent, groceries, transportation
  • 🧘🏽‍♀️ Self-care (30%) → nails, skincare, brunch with the girls
  • 💰 Savings + goals (20%) → emergency fund, trips, future glow-ups

It’s not about restricting — it’s about planning for the life you want 🫶🏽

✨ Step 3: Give Your Coins a Job 🏃🏽‍♀️

Main character money has direction. Every dollar should be working for you, not disappearing on vibes.

💅🏽 That $15? Put it in your lash fund.
💄 That refund check? Split it: bills, savings, and a lil treat.
💸 Got extra? Make a “Soft Life Stash” — because even baddies need a buffer!

And sis — don’t sleep on extra streams of income. Start that side hustle, sell that skill, launch that mini biz. You don’t need a full brand rollout — start small and stay consistent:

💻 Freelance
📦 Resell fashion or beauty items
📱 Monetize your content
💋 Start a beauty service (lashes, brows, press-ons… hello!)

More coins = more choices. And we LOVE a financially free baddie 💁🏽‍♀️

You can get your nails done, take trips, shop AND still be financially solid. You just have to plan it.

✨Set limits.
✨Give yourself permission.
✨Balance is sexy af.

Treat yourself, just don’t trick yourself 😭

“My bank account stays blessed.”

Affirmations hit different when your budget is backing them up 😌💖
